Description
Margot Harrington, an expert at book conservancy, discovers a volume of sixteen erotic drawings by Giulio Romano accompanying sixteen steamy sonnets by Pietro Aretino in a convent library. When published over four centuries earlier, the Vatican had insisted all copies be destroyed. This one--now unique--volume has survived.
